  • If you register in person, you will receive a confirmation of registration and a receipt of payment at the time of registration.
  • Keep your confirmation of registration in a safe place. It provides you with your student ID number, which you will need to access the Library Learning Commons (including the open access computing facilities). Duplicate confirmations will not be issued.
  • At the first class, confirm that you are registered in the course by confirming with the instructor that your name is on the class list. If you have not received a confirmation within three weeks of registering, call 416-415-5000, ext. 4877.

Wait Lists

  • In many cases. a wait list is available if a section (CRN) of a course is full. No payment is required to join a wait list.
  • If you are trying to register online, you will know a section is full but offers a wait list because its status will appear as Join the WAIT LIST (rather than CLOSED). You must select this link and provide the required information – including an e-mail address – in order to be placed on the wait list.
  • If a seat in the section becomes available, those on the wait list are contacted by e-mail on a first-come, first-served basis until the seat is filled.
  • A section's wait list remains in effect until 24 hours before the start of the first class, at which point the wait list is dissolved. If a seat becomes available during that 24-hour period, it will become available to the public on a first-come, first-served basis. If you were on a wait list prior to that 24-hour period but were not able to secure a seat, please check the web page for that course on a regular basis during that 24-hour period. If a seat becomes available, the status of the section on the web page will change from CLOSED to REGISTER now. Select the REGISTER now link to secure a seat with a credit card (see Registering Online).
  • Course fees will not be pro-rated should you join a class after it has started.

It is important that you provide your home and business telephone numbers and an e-mail address to facilitate our contact with you.
